From Staff Reports

Police used rubber bullets and beanbag rounds early Saturday in Pomona to restore order after punk rock fans pelted officers with rocks, cans and bottles, authorities said.

No one was injured, said Pomona Lt. Darrell Cummings. The disturbance started with a fight about 11 p.m. outside the Glass House concert venue in the 200 block of West 2nd Street, Cummings said.

When officers arrived, about 300 fans scuffled with them, Cummings said. Ontario and Claremont police were called in, he said. Five people were arrested, one on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and the others on suspicion of failing to disperse, Cummings said.
